The moment we have all been waiting for - getting the kitchen and laundry appliances delivered. Gulf Outlet guys made a big effort to get our appliances into the home before the bank inspector was scheduled to arrive. Of course, as luck would have it President Obama made a visit to New Orleans which tied up traffic and the truck with our appliances. Ellen and I met the truck at the Gulf Outlet store in Slidell and led them to the house. By the time we got there it was already dark. Thanks to the our newly installed out door lighting we could work through the evening.
After the delivery was made, Ellen and I did some additional cleaning to tidy up a very messy house.
New Orleans Auctions on Julia Street happened to have an auction the weekend of 17/18 October. We saw two sets of outdoor/foyer lamps being offered and decided to bid on those. Ellen won the bid on the first set, so we brought those over to the house to be installed as well.
This week the Fall weather has arrived, but forecasters say Hurricane Rick in the Eastern Pacific will cross over Mexico into Texas and Louisiana delaying the much needed drying of the driveway and the final grading required for the last inspection.
